However there are a few people who prefer the Seamonkey browser to
Firefox but intend to use other mail clients. There is a way to change
the Seamonkey behavior, although it's a hidden option. You can find the
instructions here:

Tried that, several suggestions ago, doesnt work.


Hmmm, I'm puzzled. That option is supposed to do exactly what you want,
that is, to call an external mail program whenever you click on a
"mailto:"; link.

Besides setting network.protocol-handler.external.mailto to "true", I
have also seen mentions of setting network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
to the pathname of your mail program. Maybe that can solve the problem
for you.


Unless something has seriously changed if your using SM and click a mailto: link in SM automatically opens the email portion as it supposed to.

In FF clicking on such, opens an unnecessary blank Page then cranks up whatever email client you have. Its a Long standing bug Mozilla refuses to fix. when you click mailto: it supposed to immediately go to what ever email client is setup. IN SM go goes to the email Component as it should.
